4th of July Fun

I know that 4th of July has long past, but I wanted get these pictures on here for memories and for my parents! Also another reason for the old post....our camera broke! It is broke broke! Hannah was taking some beautiful pictures (will be displayed on another post) and accidentally dropped the camera. Now it won't turn on for more than 5 seconds and the screen has a black haze around the edges...not good! My sister Mandy informed me a few weeks ago that my camera wasn't very good anyways, so maybe it was good it broke! Anyways, I have some pictures that I need to post and catch up on, so you will get to see those. And hopefully by the time I run out of those we will figure out what to do about a camera. Any suggestions?

We started out our July 4th by getting ready to go to a parade.This is Hannah's hairdo. It is supposed to look like a star. I added the shiny pipe cleaners at the ends. We decided it looked like fireworks.

This is her festive garb. I know the picture is blurry, but I had to put it in so that I could document. This picture was taken minutes before she puked all over the parking lot. Nice. We thought maybe it was a one-time fluke puke, so we loaded up and drove over to the parade. Once we got there and, luckily, we were out of the car. Hannah tossed her cookies again. We decided we had better go home. Hannah was so sad (so was I for that matter)! She kept saying the whole ride home, "But I love the parade!" Well, we got home and laid out a blanket and a big bowl, put on a movie, and thought that our celebration had ended before it even began!

Well, cut to a several hours later and Hannah is fine. She didn't throw-up anymore, was eating food, and was acting like her normal self. We decided to attempt to go to the fair at a near by park.

She played some games.Won some prizes. This is a pink stretchy lizard that she choose, instead of a pink necklace (which surprised me) and has been carrying it around since.And we couldn't leave the park without a little face painting.We finished the night at Chad's brother's house. We had some yummy ribs for dinner and lit off a few little fireworks for the kids. As you can tell in the pictures it is still light outside, but the kids (and me) were exhausted and need to get to bed. So even though it started out a little questionable the day ended up being a fun day!
